Last Autumn’s 10 match unbeaten streak may seem like a long time ago now for Norwich, but they have that run to thank for the breathing space that currently stands between themselves and the relegation zone.

However, with just one win in their last 16 league games, The Canaries are not out of the woods yet, and will need to get a few more points on the board in order to ensure their place in the top flight next season.

They will not have a better chance than this weekend, when they face a Reading side who have lost 10 of their last 11 away Premier league fixtures, and 13 out of 16 in total this season.

Despite last weekend’s respectable 0-0 draw against Liverpool inspired by goalkeeper Alex McCarthy’s heroics, the Royals are surely preparing themselves for life in the Championship next season, and are unlikely to pose too much of a threat at Carrow Road.

Chris Hughton’s men have only lost three times all season in their own back yard, and look likely to move one step closer to survival by collecting maximum points on Saturday, at odds of 8/11 (1.73) with Paddy Power.

Having booked themselves a place in the final of the FA Cup, Wigan must now get back down to the serious business of ensuring their Premier League survival.

The Latics were desperately unfortunate to come away empty-handed from Wednesday’s trip to Manchester City, when they missed a number of presentable chances to fail to score for the first time in nine Premier League away games.

A controversial equaliser denied West Ham a memorable win over Manchester United on the same evening, but they will take heart from the threat that they posed to the runaway league leaders.

Sam Allardyce’s men have now hit the back of the net in all but one of their 16 Premier League fixtures at Upton Park this season, but have only kept one clean sheet in their last 10 in front of their own fans.

With both teams in productive attacking form, goals at both ends seem to be almost guaranteed, and odds of 8/13 (1.62) offer excellent value on that coming to pass.

There were plenty of eyebrows raised when Southampton decided to bring in Mauricio Pochettino to replace the popular Nigel Adkins, but few could argue with the decision now, with the Argentine having led the team into the safety of mid-table.

The former Espanyol boss has had a similar effect to that of Michael Laudrup at Swansea, in building on his predecessor’s good work to take the side to the next level, and the two clubs now seem to boast two of the Premier League’s most exciting young coaches.

Both teams play the game in an attractive style, and Saturday’s clash is bound to attract plenty of neutral viewers, hoping to see some goalmouth action.

They are unlikely to be disappointed, as The Swans have only failed to score three times at the Liberty Stadium this season, while their visitors have only been denied on the same number of occasions on their Premier League travels.

Expect a crowd-pleasing game to give both sets of supporters something to cheer about, with odds of 4/7 (1.57) too good to pass up on both teams to score.
